Click Bond, Inc., a global leader in adhesive-bonded fastening and assembly solutions based in Carson City, Nevada, has acquired Brighton Science, a pioneer in surface intelligence and adhesion-measurement technology. This important acquisition expands Click Bond’s ability to deliver measurable, scientific confidence from surface to structure, uniting bonding science with fastening innovation.
“This is an exciting evolution for Click Bond,” said Brandon Perlich, President and Chief Financial Officer (CFO) of Click Bond. “Brighton Science brings incredible scientific expertise to our engineering and manufacturing capabilities.

A Shared Vision for the Future
This partnership reflects a shared vision: bringing the science of adhesion and the engineering of fasteners closer together. Over time, insights from Brighton Science’s research will help inform Click Bond’s continued research and development, product design, data science, and customer solution strategies, enabling manufacturers of high-performance platforms to achieve lighter, stronger, more efficient designs.
“This reinforces our shared belief that adhesion isn’t art; it’s science,” said Karl Hutter, CEO of Click Bond. “By combining Brighton’s measurement technology with our fastening systems, we’re creating new opportunities for innovation and customer confidence.”
